Three South Carolina early enrollees aren’t on campus yet. What’s the holdup?
South Carolina football came out of the early signing day with 12 players projected to enroll early.
But only nine are currently on campus.
Gamecocks coach Will Muschamp said Cam Smith, Traevon Kenion and TyQuan Johnson have not enrolled. Muschamp said it was mostly about scheduling and being able to enroll on time.
“It’s not anything to do with the University of South Carolina admissions process,” Muschamp said. “I can assure you of that. We’re working through that right now. There’s always snags here and there that you’ve got to work though. You’ve got to deal with deadlines as far as enrolling and getting in classes. That was kind of what we dealt with in this situation.”
Smith is a four-star cornerback from Westwood and one of the top-rated recruits in the class. Kenion was a dynamic player for one of the top high school programs in North Carolina, while Johnson signed in 2018 as well, but had to spend a season in prep school.
The group of nine on campus is led by four-star quarterback Ryan Hilinski and five-star defensive lineman Zacch Pickens.
